I think it's either near Birmingham or near Durham. I can't even be bothered to find out. I was the same with Peterborough, always thought it was North East but its not, no idea where it is other than a bit down south. Back in the day remember some Walsall fans pinned in the corner of the Kop near the triangle and some Wednesdayites pointing at them and singing “We hate cockneys, we hate cockneys”. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See, that's lost on me. Are they cockneys? Geordies? Scousers? Smoggies? Dingles? Potters? I've no idea. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peterborough is East Midlands. East of Leicester. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1960Owl Posted August 18, 2020 Share Posted August 18, 2020 I remember the game there in Jan 1977. Went 1-0 up early doors, think it was Roger Wylde who scored and then we proceeded to get hammered 5-1. The coach I was on then had most of the windows smashed before leaving the town, making for a rather cold journey back to Sheffield. Happy days! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And more recently, a Boxing Day, Ryan Lowe had put us 1-0 up. At 90 minutes my friend left and waited in the car. When I joined him he was saying what a good win it was. I ruined his Xmas telling him they'd scored twice in injury time. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alanharper Posted August 18, 2020 Share Posted August 18, 2020 Meh. At least it's only Walsall, I'd have been livid had we been drawn at a new ground like Barrow or Salford when we weren't allowed to go and us away ground "hunters" missed our chance to add it to the list.

Leaping Lannys Perm Posted August 18, 2020 Share Posted August 18, 2020 Typical that it is a ground I haven't been to when we can't attend. Probably several in the same boat though. Looks like a half decent compact stadium from the motorway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was there that day. i remember Chris Turner being in the net. luckily a good session in the boozer before the match (a copper pointed out the best pub to go to) eased the pain. Our coach was fine.
